Police continue to investigate reports of woman being forced into a car in Telford

The incident occurred at just after 3pm on Colliers Way, near to the Telford Forge Retail Park on Sunday 24 May.

Witnesses describe seeing a man forcing a woman into a saloon style vehicle (described as being blue, grey or green) which is thought to have damage to the driver-side rear door.

Officers have confirmed that nobody has been reported missing in connection with the incident.

As well as appealing for information from anyone who witnessed the incident officers are keen to speak to the woman involved.

Detective Inspector Billy Scott said: "One of the lines of enquiry we are following is that the people involved may be known to each other. However, we remain very concerned for welfare of the woman and would continue to appeal for anyone with information to contact us. We would also appeal for the woman to contact us to let us know if she is alright; even if she doesn't want to make a formal complaint regarding the incident, we are keen to know she is safe and well."

The woman is described as being white, in her late 20s, about 5ft 5inches tall, wearing a navy hooded top, dark grey leggings and white canvas pumps.

The man, who was also driving the car is described as being white, in his 30s, about 5ft 9inches tall, of large build and with fair hair.

Another man in the passenger seat is described as being white, in his early 30s and of large build.

Police are appealing for anyone with information or who may have witnessed the incident to contact them on 101 quoting incident 0398s of 24 May 2015. Alternatively, information can be provided anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via www.crimestoppers-uk.org
